Take a look at the play below. This was the second play of what turned out to be a touchdown march to make it 21-14. It was a 27-yard run by Bolden. The Patriots initially lined up with a one-back (Bolden, blue circle) look behind Brady, but Rob Gronkowski (yellow circle) motioned to an offset position next to Bolden, setting up the key block on the play on Scott (black circle). The Bills were in a 4-2-5 look, which meant the smaller Scott had to take on the 280-pound Gronkowski in the hole.

The Patriots will probably never be a running team with TB here. They just need to be able to hurt opponents with the run when they come out in a formation like the 4-2-5, and for the first time in a while it looks like they have a run game capable of that.
